So first our beloved government bars our courts from releasing details of something which is already widely known - that they were complicit in the torture of Binyam Mohammed - claiming that the US government had threatened to withdraw intelligence cooperation (and thereby cause UK citizens to die at the hands of The Evil Terrorist Menace) if they allowed the court to go ahead.
Now it turns out that the US wasn't threatening them at all... At least not until the foreign office
begged them to do so. These people should be in jail, not in government.
